* OPTIONAL: There is also a little riff played before the chorus (leading into *Riff1)
by a second guitar, but its just C and Cadd9 picking only one or 2 strings at a time.
again... listen to the song for the timing. its easy enough to play with one guitar and
it sounds good.
Intro: Fingerpicking C Cmaj7
Verse 1:
CFC
Roadsinger came to town; long cape and hat.
CGCGCCadd9C
People stood and stared, then closed their doors, as he passed.
CFC
He strolled the empty street; kids banged on tin cans.
CGCGCCadd9C *Riff1
Then the panting dogs began to bark, as the roadsinger sang.
Chorus 1:
AmGDFC
Where do you go? Oh, where do you go? when hearts are closed
F Am *G-Riff G
When a friend becomes a stranger, nobody wants to know.
AmGDFC
Where do you go, where do you go, when the world turns dark,
FAmGFCCadd9C
And the light of truth is blown out, and the roads are blocked?
Verse 2:
CFC
He stopped by a store, between the barrels and sacks,
CGCGCCadd9C
A child's face peeped out and gave a smile, and ran back.
CFC
Behind a misty glass, on a window-pane,
CGCGCCadd9C *Riff1
A little finger drew a perfect heart, and a name.
Chorus 2:
AmGDFC
Where do you go, where do you go, in a world filled with fright,
F Am *G-Riff G
Only a song to warm you, through the night?
AmGDFC
Where do you go, where do you go, after lies are told,
FAmGFCCadd9C
And the light of truth is blown out, and the night is cold?
Interlude: (Humming and slide guitar)
C, F, CCGCG, CCadd9CC, F, CCGCG, CCadd9C
Verse 3:
CFC
Roadsinger rode on, to another land,
CGCGCCadd9C
Though the people spoke a different tongue, they’d understand
CFC
They showed him how to share, and took him by the hand,
CGCGCCadd9C *Riff1
Showed him the path to Heaven, through the desert sand.
Chorus 3:
AmGDFC
Where do you go, where do you go, to find happiness,
F Am *G-Riff G
In a world filled with hatred... and tears.
AmGDFC
Where do you go, where do you go, if no one cares,
FAmGFCCadd9C
And everybody's lost, Looking for theirs.
